Gu Zheng was speechless for a moment. Judging from Feng Yu's expression, it seemed that he didn't know what a cardinal was at all. Although Gu Zheng had always lived in the mountains and forests, he was not at all interested in the outside world. He is unfamiliar with it, and he is very familiar with some systems in the religious world.
Cardinals are ministers of the Holy See. Their status is second only to the Pope. Cardinals are elites directly selected by the Pope from among the outstanding clergy. They assist the Pope in managing the affairs of the religious church. When the Pope dies, he After that, the new pope can only be elected by a vote of all cardinals.
Both China's Zhenling and the Western Church have some common characteristics, which is to deter and suppress dark creatures, and maintain the balance between ordinary humans and dark creatures. However, there are many differences between the two. .For example, the identities of the Zhenling people in China are relatively secretive, and the world does not know the existence of such people. However, the church is different. The church once ruled the Western world for a very long period of time with the theory of supremacy. The days are coming when theocratic authority is supreme. If a secular king violates the divine authority, he will be in great trouble. There is a very famous event in history, that is, King Henry VIII of England once offended the pope, and finally rushed to the Alps In the place where the Pope lives, I knelt outside the gate for a whole day and night in the wind and snow, and then got forgiveness from the Pope.
The power of the church cannot even be provoked by secular kings, let alone ordinary people. Although as time goes by, the secular influence of the church is no longer the behemoth that overriding the king's power in the past, its influence today cannot be underestimated. watch for.
Of course, the church also hopes to extend its tentacles into a densely populated place like China. In a world with a population of 1.4 billion people, if it could promote the church's teachings and gain the foundation of faith here, what a glorious achievement would it be? The church They have been infiltrating the body since hundreds of years ago, but like the Dark Council, their plan did not succeed due to the obstruction of the Soul-Suppressing People. Therefore, the organization of the Holy See and the Soul-Suppressing People, and the relationship between colleagues did not work. It's not particularly harmonious. Occasionally, the two sides often meet each other at some secret positions.
So Gu Zheng was very curious as to why the cardinal of the church was the teacher of Feng Yu, a member of the Zhenling Organization. And even treasures like "Glory of God" would be handed over to Feng Yu. This is even more incredible. .
"Do Sun Yan and Mr. Lin know that you have such a teacher?" Gu Zheng thought for a while, but felt that he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, and he immediately became wary. He secretly thought that Feng Yu was a new round of infiltration of the Holy See into China. One of the chess pieces?
"I know!" Seeing Gu Zheng's troubled face, she felt incredible: "I am one of the seventh batch of Zhenling people who went to the Holy See for exchanges! Because China has been invaded by dark creatures from the west in recent years. Every two years, our organization will select fifteen people to exchange with the Holy See and train each other. I went to the Holy See to learn how to restrain the dark creatures in the West. My teacher was Dar, one of the Holy See’s cabinet ministers. O Cardinal!"
Hearing this, Gu Zheng was slightly startled again. He really didn't know what Feng Yu said. So after hearing Feng Yu's words, he was a little dumbfounded. "When will the Holy See tell you? Their relationship is so harmonious?" The muscles on Gu Zheng's face twitched, and his expression was extremely depressed.
"It's not because, over the years, many monsters that are unique to China have been born on their side. They also have a headache. The Inquisition is tired of dealing with it, so they can only turn to our organization for help."
After hearing Feng Yu's words, Gu Zheng nodded thoughtfully. It turned out that both parties got what they needed! There was just one problem that Gu Zheng couldn't figure out, and that was why in the Western world, Can monsters be born within the body's area? This is inconsistent with some natural laws and prohibitions from ancient times!
However, he did not ask Feng Yu this question, because he knew very well that even Feng Yu's teacher, Cardinal Ernie, could not explain this question clearly, let alone Feng Yu.
"Why did Darni give you such a pendant?" Gu Zheng asked again. Because Gu Zheng knew how high the energy contained in this pendant was. For the Holy See, it contained divine power and was an artifact that could perform miracles. How important it is that even the Pope would not give it away easily! Why on earth did Darni want to give this pendant to Feng Yu? If he couldn't figure out this issue, Gu Zheng would definitely be struggling for a long time. Time.
"I don't know either. He told me that this pendant was left by God to protect the prophets who walked the world and spread the voice on behalf of God. He seemed to think that I might have the temperament of a prophet, so he gave me this pendant. He said that if I have no chance of becoming a prophet within five years, he will come and take away this pendant." Feng Yu smiled sheepishly and said, "Two years have passed, and I am still as confused as ever. This pendant, I'm afraid, In three more years, it will be returned to him."
After listening to Feng Yu's words, Gu Zheng understood what was going on. He looked at Feng Yu carefully and couldn't understand why Darni thought that Feng Yu was a prophet. What did this girl think? None of them look alike!
But Gu Zheng also understood that the prophet was a very important figure to the Holy See. In the history of the Holy See, the person who could make the Pope bow his head and obey orders was the prophet. Because every word the prophet said represented a symbol of God's will. Of course, the premise is that the prophet must be recognized by the Pope. The Holy See has not seen a prophet for nearly a thousand years, so if they find someone with prophetic potential, they will definitely pay more attention, win over and protect them. Ensure this Before the prophet awakened, he was still able to survive in this world. This can also explain why Cardinal Darni gave an artifact to Feng Yu.
Gu Zheng also knew that over the past thousands of years, there have been not a thousand but eight hundred people who were suspected of being prophets, but none of them were real. Gu Zheng did not want the so-called prophet to come. Because the prophet's The coming of God means that there will be a near-destructive chaos in the human world. The appearance of the prophet is to arrange the so-called "chosen people" for God so that they can continue to survive in this world.
